We all asked "why why why???" (being kids, that we were) and she said, "Well you have SO many earthquakes! One day, in your lifetime, there will be a giant earthquake that makes California breaking off from the USA and float on its own!"
Needless to say, half of kids in the classroom were scared out of their wits and the teacher had to expalin to us that it is not TRUE and that it is part of geology's natural erosion that CA won't break off any time soon....(but it is true-- CA will become part of Alaska in tens of thousands years later)
